Controlling Values and Repetend:
The controlling value in my twitterive is the debate between putting others before yourself, with the risk of losing yourself, or putting yourself first but looking selfish.
|
Repetend: Selfish, Putting others first or yourself first
I chose to have a theme of being selfish or putting others first because I realized that there are pros and cons to both. When I was home one day with my family, I noticed a selfish side to my brother which generated the idea. Then I started thinking about my own life and how I act and I was the complete opposite of him. I became interested in the idea of exploring both sides of the argument. |
Core Values of the Writing Arts Major:
4. Writing Arts students will be able to investigate, discover, evaluate and incorporate material into the creation of text.
I had to evaluate and understand the background information of my family and my life in order to incorporate the knowledge and information into my Twitterive. |
5. Writing Arts students will demonstrate self-critical awareness of their writing.
I had multiple drafts of the Twitterive. I started off with just posting my tweets, then I narrowed it down to a few tweets and generated more ideas from the tweets. I was able to analyze my own work and realize that where I was going was not going to work as a full Twitterive, but it still helped with ideas for the finished product. I was able to self-analyze my own work and revise and challenge my own ideas in order to improve the work. |
